Frequently asked questions

What is the lug width of the Breitling Navitimer AB0139241C2P1?

The Breitling Navitimer AB0139241C2P1 has a lug width of 22mm. This measurement refers to the internal distance between the two case lugs and must be respected precisely to ensure correct fitting of any replacement strap.

What is the best strap for the Breitling Navitimer AB0139241C2P1?

For the Navitimer AB0139241C2P1 in stainless steel with a 41mm case, the most suitable materials are vegetable-tanned calf leather for everyday wear — thanks to the patina it develops over time — and glossy alligator for formal occasions. A nylon NATO strap is ideal for sporting use or travel. A deployant clasp in brushed steel completes the pairing, optimising wrist comfort and security.

How do you change the strap on the Breitling Navitimer AB0139241C2P1?

To replace the strap on the Navitimer AB0139241C2P1, a spring bar tool is required. Insert the tool into the lug slot, compress the spring bar and slide the strap free from the lug. Care should be taken to avoid scratching the stainless steel case. If in doubt, it is advisable to entrust the operation to a watchmaker or specialist atelier.

Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Breitling Navitimer AB0139241C2P1?

Yes. Any strap with a 22mm attachment is technically compatible with the Breitling Navitimer AB0139241C2P1. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of handcrafted straps in leather, alligator, calf and technical materials, all fitted with standard 22mm spring bars and available with various clasp options. Material quality and precise measurements ensure a secure fit and optimal wrist comfort.

How long does a leather strap last on the Breitling Navitimer AB0139241C2P1?

The lifespan of a leather strap depends primarily on the quality of the tanning process, daily use and care. A high-quality vegetable-tanned calf strap, with regular use and proper maintenance — avoiding prolonged exposure to water and perspiration — can last between 2 and 5 years. Alligator straps, when treated with a specialist leather conditioner, tend to last longer while retaining their original grain. Milano Straps provides an 18-month guarantee against manufacturing defects.
